I was shooting for a moist & chewy (non-grainy) gluten-free oat flour brownie. However, what I got instead was probably one of the tastiest gluten-free cakes I’ve ever made. These are healthy but still tasty, cake-like chocolate brownies.
They have lots of easily digestible protein for building muscle. Plus, these brownies have high amounts of soluble fiber. Therefore, they are perfect for feeding good probiotic bacteria in the gut. As a result, they are great at managing weight and helping a healthy body composition. If you slice them up small you can have with a scoop of ice cream or topped with real whipped cream and still keep it low in calories.
In my household, I have always tried to keep treats down to once or twice a week. However, with these healthier alternatives, I don’t worry as much. I know they are mostly made of real food like eggs, yogurt, applesauce, sprouted oat flour, coconut oil & real maple syrup. Plus, NSP’s amazing protein powders. It is a great way to get in these supplements without doing shakes & smoothies every day!

Healthy But Tasty Cake-Like Chocolate Brownies
Notes
I have tested this recipe with Love & Peas but still need to try INFORM Metabolic Age Protein Powder. Also, my original tested recipe used 1/2 cup Plain Greek Yogurt measured out. I want to try with the individual servings at 5.3 oz. As I struggle to find enough recipes & things to do with my extra yogurt. Anyone who knows me, knows I hate throwing away food! However, I may need to adjust the sweetness level to incorporate the extra yogurt.
